I was just about to post this blog when I came across this marvelous story about a stray dog and a newborn. After reading this account, I knew this story had to be the lead article in this newsletter.
The article is from PetsFans.com We live in a world full of cruelty; we are surrounded by heartless, inhumane people. The people who use every chance to abuse dogs, leave them abandoned on streets, poison them, or kill them.
In a parallel world to the cruelty, we still find dogs loyal and are there for people when they need to be.
No matter how much hatred and abuse they received from humans; they will still be there for us, saving us from any danger, and making the world an amazing place with their loyalty and love.
This story shows how noble dogs are, whether they are living in a home or astray, their hearts and morals are the same. It all started in one of Oman’s streets, when a stray dog was roaming around to find food, but found something shocking and unbelievable instead. The dog found a newborn baby only a few hours old, with its umbilical cord still attached to it.
Who is the heartless person who did this? How can someone throw their baby that way? What would this dog do?
Have a look at the link . The pictures are something else to see. I hope this smart and brave dog gets a good home with a family to love him. He is a hero dog!
